Why do I attract mosquitoes more than other people?
Об эпизоде
Warm summer nights often bring unwelcome guests into our homes in the form of mosquitoes. For now we fortunately don’t have any mosquito-borne diseases being transmitted to humans in the UK, but with the warmer temperatures brought on by climate change, it may only be a matter of time until that changes. You may have noticed that some of us seem to attract more mosquito bites than others, even within the same household or having been at the same gathering. A popular belief is that mosquitoes have a preference for certain types of skin, because they find them sweeter. Is skin ‘sweetness’ really the most important factor? What does CO2 have to do with it? Does my choice of clothing make any difference? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
